Ch. Shravan Kumar, a student of class XII from Sri Chaitanya Junior College, Secunderabad worte to us about how he is inspired by our work. We humbly hope to continue reaching out to many like him all over the country through our lights and inspire more such students.

Small video of a school student of 3rd standard from “Tender feet who wants to help children who are struggling to study at night due to lack of proper study lighting get OCOL Solar Study Lights. The video was taken when the student was asked on what she expressed when she approached people with the idea.

India has more than 120 million (12 crores) school going children. Nearly 95% of the homes in Bihar, 87% in Jharkhand, 76% in Uttaranchal, 74% in Orissa use kerosene in homes.

Needless to say that the majority of the 120 million children in these homes have to study at the polluting kerosene wick lamp. Again they have to take their share of the lamp’s time for study with the other contending members of the family.
